TD Insurance Home Insurance Reviews

They were so nasty to us and never called us back.After a few days they had part of basement cleaned up and the other part to stay wet ,it created mold.I had to pay a company to clean the mold.Now the clean up company has my contents which they have not cleaned,asked me to pick it up.I would like an account of what the insurance paid them and they will not call me back.What should I do?

My home insurance with NO claims has almost tripled within the last three years. i had my roof redone in 2012 they said it would save me some monies, instead right after that the rates started increasing. The first increase was the year before the flood in Calgary. When I called there was no explanation except they were getting in line with other insurance companies. The next year the flood in Calgary happened, I live in Calgary I was told it was not because of the flood, as insurance companies here in alberta do not cover natural disasters, the province has to pick up those costs. True. So why? No answer this time, was told a manager would call me back. Never happened. This year I see another increase of of almost $300 a year. I have yet to call as I am so pissed off its ridiculous. I have been with this company two vehicles and home insurance for over 15 years. No more I am quite confident I will find insurance with the same or better coverage for what I am paying for now.

The worst company I had to deal with. I had my roof leaking and I made a claim and they denied my claim and told me that I am not covered by the water dampening problem. When they renewed my insurance policy, they never sent me the policy coverage.
TD insurance only wants the money monthly from you but when it's time to claim, they will make every effort to refuse your claim.
Stay away from this company, they are a bunch of crooks…

TD Monnex has consistently raised their premiums but reduced the coverage at the same time.

I filed a claim for water damage caused by a burst pipe and was told someone will contact me the next day. It never happened. I called them repeatedly for a months to no avail. They only contacted me after I threatened to take them to the Ontario Ombudsman.

I stay with TD Monnex only because I was too busy to shop around for another insurance provider.

Same experience as alot of others who have commented. Rates consistently increasing with coverage being reduced and then watch out when you want to make a claim. Had a water damage claim from a frozen pipe. Was told I would have a decison on coverage within 2 days. I had to call and follow up constantly. They never contacted me directly. Almost 3 months later, after me following up again, I'm told a denial letter has been issued. Thanks for letting me know! The lady on the phone said it's a pretty simple situation to arise at their decision. I'd hate to see how long a hard situation would take. In the meantime I'm on the hook for the first response team who swoop in and make you sign something (don't worry you're covered). I expect I'll get a big inflated bill that I'll have to pay even though most of the work they did I kept being told was 'for the insurance company so they could get an estimate of the loss'. Totally frustrated with the back and forth between TD and the adjuster they outsourced to. Will be looking to change all my policies to another insurer.

The service has always been excellent - as long as I had no home insurance claim.
We had a major roof leak in our home, roof was 12 years old. Adjuster (who would not return my calls and it took me a full week to get her on the phone) told me my claim was denied due to my own negligence. When I asked her how having a 12 year old roof could be considered negligent (!), she asked me when the last time I had been in the attic to check on my roof, said she checks hers monthly. She was rude, insulting and smug and boy did we fight her. Eventually, our claim was accepted but they made it impossible every step of the way.
If you do have a claim, do everything by email so you have a record of what is said or else they play with you like crazy. Once we started communicating by email (and I had made complaints to superiors), things straightened out, although communication remained poor.
Also, they raised my rates by over 50%. I was told this is what they do in certain neighbourhoods, where they have many clients, they don't want too much risk in case of a flood in the neighbourhood, for example. Or they refuse to provide insurance on certain coverages like, sewer backup or roof leaks.
Terrible company. great service when you call for quotes though.

I have been an auto and home insurance client with TD Meloche Monnex for over 30 years. However, despite only 2 home claims being submitted, (1992 and 2008), they have increased my home insurance premiums a whopping 105% from 2011 to my 2014 premium of approximately $1,500. The main reasons provided for the increases is the jump in claims for sewer backup water damage attributed to more frequent and severe climatic incidents such as the flooding in the Alberta and GTA regions this past spring. They have also reduced my sewer backup coverage from $50K to $15K and increased my premium by more than $100. I was told I cannot increase my sewer backup coverage unless I install a sewer backup valve. They also refused to provide me with historical data to substantiate why my postal code area reflects the highest risk factor for backup. There have not been any major events in the area for the past few years. I have received multiple quotes at a significantly lesser overall premium, which include sewer backup coverage over $500k. Beware to current clients and consumers considering this company.

Found a leak in our basement bathroom, immediately called TD insurance to start a claim as we did not know the cause or the extent of the damage. Turns out that the leak is from an improperly installed drain pipe on the tub drain from renovations done on the home prior to us purchasing it. Our claim has been denied on the basis that faulty installations are not covered. I can understand the repair part of the job. I have to fix that-that's a given. But what about the damage caused? We are in the process of selling our home and we made it very clear at the beginning of all this we needed it expedited quickly. It as taken three weeks to get ANY kind of answer from TD Insurance. The worst part? I am TD staff! I know the company I work for treats its customers better than this-or so I thought. This has put me in a very awkward position with my employer. But I am a customer like everyone else, and I have the right to complain about poor service too.
